Dots Studio's open-weight model for tasks that run for hours or days: 280B total parameters, 16B active, 512K context, with text, vision, and speech. Free to try via OpenRouter.
In plain words
- Dots Studio released a freely accessible artificial intelligence system built for tasks lasting hours or days.
- Its internal adjustable values are available for others to use, rather than being kept entirely private.
- It has 280 billion adjustable values overall, with 16 billion active during operation.
- It can process text, images, and speech while reasoning, writing code, and using outside tools.
- Researchers and builders can try it free through OpenRouter on work that may continue for hours or days.
